The Incomplete Struggle (Always Joinable)

“Hey, are you all right? You didn't over do it, did you?”

"I'm sorry Riku..." Blazir says while still laying on the floor. Then his voice started to get deeper."Poor Riku had to use his heartless powers to get out of a simple grenade spell... You should be glad that you have the power of darkness with you, or you would have been exploded into bits!!!" He got up and then looked Riku in the eye. "You wanna test my strength? Do you!!!" He seemingly fainted and began to fall to the floor... "I give you my all... Rizalb!!!"

"hahahaha...." A more darker sinister voice had come out... "Over do it?" Blazir slowly stood to his feet and transformed into his dark form. "I'm just getting started!!!" He summoned his keyblade and then screamed out, "Are you ready for complete darkness!!!" As the new Blazir also known as Rizalb ran towards Riku while dual weilding his keyblades then the keyblades disappeared and his hands and feet lit on fire. "Have you seen a trick like this!!!" He then teleported directly in front of Riku and started to bombard him with a flurry of punches and kicks.

The Reverend and The General, two men of high status within their respective forces, stood, transfixed upon each other in the castle entrance hall. They were neither speaking, nor even truly thinking of any words that could mend their old ties with one another, which on this day, seemed to be left broken and sore. Good friends, even ones so good as the to had once been, were always bound to disagree, and disagree hard. Both knowing now that it could never be the same as it had been in years passed, broke their disapproving stares, and Voth, with an arrogant elegance, turned on his heels, his cape fluttering gently back to touch his back, made a leave that was in an uncharacteristic "rage", leaving Kreagan to his own scehdule now.

At this point, the general remembered that Trinity was still preent within the room, having apparently taken in the information dispensed without much frustration. Gifting her with a father like smile, Kreagan made his own departure back to his office, bidding the young guardian a healthy rest of the day. One so young as her... should not have to fight this needless war.

Traversing a series of corridors, and limping up several sets of stairs, he returned to his circular office near the top of the castle. The floor appeared to have been littered with papers, no doubt his own clumsy doing when he had left to enter the battle. He gave one glance out of the window to the mountains beyond the village, and then, he had managed to pull out a smile. It was peacefull out there, no war to fight, or dead to tend to. It was just, perfect in that direction. But there was little time now to stew over the beauty of the mountains, though he'd have really liked to. This was now time for reworking some of his papers, and hopefully, tidying up before he rejoined the clean up crews.

"I suppose I better start with you," he said, sitting down at his desk, resting back in the bedlike arm chair. Before he could even think about what to organie first, his eyes drooped, and shut, and he drift off into the depths of a wonderful nap.

Far from napping, far from even tiring out at this point in time, The Reverend walked in a light stomp back to the area where he had parked his ship last. If he was lucky, the Dirigente would have left the small one man ship for him to ride back to Twilight Town. While not tired in the least, he too felt like resting at some point, given that his rage would only cause foolish decisions on his part. Napping was, in a manner, the means by which he could best subside his nager with the foolishness of his now enemy.

Even here, in world where his name was not so widely known, he was the uncarring recipient of hundreds of stares from civilians, and soldiers alike, the Crusader marking branded clearly on his forehead, giving his a stand out feature among those that were not his kin. And they all knew, at the first sight of him, that he was not one that they should start questioning now. Maybe later, but by no means now. For this, he was thankful, for he neither wished to answer questions, nor fight anyone who asked them forcefully.

Fate, as it seemed, had made a different plan for him. His ship, landed near the Dark Depths where he had fought the witch not long before, was seen now to be the targeted by two others... no, three others outside of Voth. While one was merely pursuing the other two, the two being pursued had been dealing with a Darkside heartless, a breed which had become rare in recent days. While the situation would have dictated that Voth sneak passed the group unnoticed, he had had a better plan in mind. Erasing the rage from his facial expression, he walked calmly in the direction of the two fighting the heartless. They had broken the beast passed the front gate to the castle.

"Very well done, or at least, as best as I could have expected from those such as yourselves." Let us see if I can't learn of my enemies.

[DJQuackQuack]

"Very well done, or at least, as best as I could have expected from those such as yourselves."

"And who might you be, one of the Witch's new minions?" Asked Grim in an annoying tone, ready to finally set foot inside of the castle and confront his goal.Turning around, he could not help but let loose a laugh at the sight of an old man. While finding the situation hilarious ar first, he turned his gaze to the well known Crusader tatoo resting in the middle of the man's forhead. "Ohoho, you must be from those techno freaks, am I right? What's the matter, you all get jealous because I didn't attack your world? Well if you want to know, our plan is exactly that my friend."

A huge grin forced its way onto his face, one full of malicious intent. I know who this man is, he is like the second in command of the Crusaders. Well, one who cares so much for his organization would surely fall for a well thought out bluff. I'd much rather avoid fighting, especially a senior citizen.

"What's the matter, didn't hear me? You didn't misinterpret my words, as we speak my forces are now directed our major forces upon Twilight Town. This dump was merely a distraction, meant to lower the guard of the foolish Completes that oppose us. Once we completely wipe out the Crusaders, these crippled Guardians shall fall so fast!"

He took a moments pause, waving his arm for Rosa to proceed in. Shortly after, he followed in suit and the only one who remained was Reaper, his pseudo Flamberge and Darkside abilities still activated for 10 more minutes. "You, my good sir," Started Grim over his shoulder as he walked deeper into the castle, "may wish to start back home. An army without one of their strongest general would lose a lot of composure, don't ya think?"

(OOC- Dirigente post soon. Gonna have to start power playing Flower's peeps till her much awaited return.)

"I'm sorry Riku..."

He doesn’t look so good. I’ll go give him a hand. Riku was about to walk towards Blazir to help him, but stopped when the boy started speaking again, only this time his voice didn’t sound quite the same.

"Poor Riku had to use his heartless powers to get out of a simple grenade spell... You should be glad that you have the power of darkness with you, or you would have been exploded into bits!!!"

Then it came to him, the scent of Blazir’s darkness, it had gotten fouler. It was almost a different scent entirely. As if Blazir had changed into someone else. Riku took a tighter grip on his Keyblade. If Blazir’s darkness was taking over him, then the purpose of this battle could possibly change in a blink of an eye. Blazir stood up staring at Riku with a menacing gaze.

"You wanna test my strength? Do you!!!" Blazir began to sink back to the floor as if he were fainting. "I give you my all... Rizalb!!!"

“Rizalb?” He said under his breath. Riku didn’t know what that word meant.

"hahahaha...." Blazir laughed, but it didn’t sound anything like him. "Over do it?" He took to his feet and as he did so, the angel took on a different form that was dark and sinister. When this happened Riku confirmed that Blazir was no longer himself. Something else had taken over, and that something else was his darkness. "I'm just getting started!!!" A new Keyblade appeared in the dark angel’s hand. This one was unlike the others and had a more evil look to it, which complimented his new form nicely. "Are you ready for complete darkness!!!"

Blazir charged towards Riku. His Keyblades disappeared and his hands and feet were engulfed in hot flames. Riku’s eyes widened. "Have you seen a trick like this!!!"

He disappeared and Riku searched for his darkness. Oh no… He thought, knowing where Blazir was going to appear and dreading it because there was no way he would be able to dodge it. Creating that dark shield had slowed him down. When Blazir’s hot fist rammed into Riku’s gut he saw stars. After a few more kicks and punches, Riku involuntarily deployed a small, but fragile dark barrier. Blazir broke right through it, but it gave the silver headed boy enough time to get out of the dark angel’s fiery punches and kicks. He was now a few feet away from Blazir trying not to pant, but not doing a very good job of it. Riku looked a Blazir, and felt pity for the boy. He too had once been in a similar situation. All the details of the memory of Xehanorts Heartless came flowing back to him. Riku bit the inside of his cheek hard so he could stop thinking about it. Once his mind started to dwell in the past it was hard for him to get back to the present, and he definitely had no timing for that.

I’ve got to help Blazir gain control, before he does something he’ll regret.

“Blazir,” He started in a calm voice, lowering his Keyblade a little. “I know what’s happening to you. You need to focus. Don’t let it control you. Just… relax.”

[sorafinalform]

"Blazir? Who is that? I'm Rizalb! That weakling could barely even put up a proper grenade spell! hahahahah!!! but... he is my master. So i guess you can talk to him for a little while..."

A cheerful voice came from the dark angels mouth, "Heh... You wanted to see it..." He stood up and smiled at Riku, "Well... what do you thin- ahhhh!!!" He fell to the ground and entered into a portal that lead directly above Riku to the point where they were almost touching each others noses.

"Ok nap times over! Taste this!!!!" Blazir engulfed riku in a whirling tornado of flames. He teleported out and the tornado was slowly closing at the top. "Now i will show you the full strength of a grenade spell. Seing how im the one who created it!!!" The tornado closed up and Rizalb controlled the gravity as he saw fit. He would open the top of the tornado and lighten the gravity only to slam him back down if he tried to escape, and even though the gravity was enough he would close the tornado taking away all hope of leaving. Then he would open it and repeat the process. "Hahahaha isn't this FUN!!! Now i wil show you the greatest part of my spell. This is the part that the fool you knew couldn't handle with his weak magic limits!!! Witness the power of true darkness!!!" The dark angel started to make portals that lead inside of the tornado and stuck his arms through trying to stab riku. He did this multiple times. "Hey Riku... YOU STILL ALIVE!!!!!"

Rizalb the ceased all portals and used the remainder of his magic to sustain a closed tornado, Make a portal, and send a huge ball of life crushing gravity from the top to the bottom of the Flame tornado. The ball was a dark purple and black. It made the gravity that Rizalb already had on Riku push down even harder. If it hit him then this would be the end of Riku. "IF YOUR STILL ALIVE YOU MIGHT WANNA LOOK UP!!! or better yet... GET OUT!!!" He knew that Riku couldn't escape. He just teased him for the fun of it.

Kazen had gotten Tengai to wake up and the two of them had already left the ship and made their way into the spooky world of Halloween Town.

"Ok, we need to find out why the Dirigente sent us here, and finish our mission." Kazen said with an important sounding tone to his voice.

The two pressed on into the strange woods in which they had been walking for what seemed like hours, everything had begun to mesh together and things started looking unfamiliar as the two pressed onwards through their surroundings.

"Well.....I hate to say this Tengai, but I think we're lost" Kazen said out loud as he put his hands behind his head and stood there milling over their current situation.

[Chromatic]

Grim's words would have held great weight on the old Crusader, if not for his onw knowledge of his forces back home. True, he was absent from the front line of the defenses at Twilight Town. Also true, however, as the fact that the Dirigente was there, as well as a host of elite troops, well trained in combat. His own lacking in presence would hardly be noticed in the battle even if the Incompletes attacked them.

"You, my good sir, may wish to start back home. An army without one of their strongest general would lose a lot of composure, don't ya think?"

Voth turned to this hulking creature that had apparently escorted the Incompletes to this point, and simply smiled. "I assure YOU... whatever you are, that The Crusaders are more than capable of defending themsleves. More so especially than the Guardians of Light."

[Impulsx]

Tengai awakes with Kazen over him shaking Tengai like a rag-doll.

"Ohh jeez!? W..Wuuh, What's going on..?"

As Tengai looks around he rubs his eyes

"Ohh. Did we land? I must of fallen asleep.. heh." ^-^;

As Kazen looked at our mission orders once again, Tengai searches the ship for any useful items to take along.
Walking threw a darkish forest Kazen turns to Tengai and says

"Well.....I hate to say this Tengai, but I think we're lost"

Tengai looks over at Kazen and puts on a smirk

"Hmm well then, How are we going to get out of this one."

[Derick_Shadow13]

"Hmm well then, How are we going to get out of this one."

Kazen shrugged and took a few more steps into the woods and found a clearing with trees arranged in a circle, each tree had a strange door on it. "Hey I think I found something." He says back to Tengai "Maybe this is what we're here for?" He asks himself.

"The mission brief didn't say anything regarding the mission, just that we should come here and check things out, well we did, and this is what we found so i guess we investigate."

Kazen waved Tengai over and walked towards the door bearing a large Christmas tree "hey, this door is open slightly..." Kazen moves in for a closer look and gets sucked in by freezing winds and a wisp of snow "Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!"

He fell into a blue spiral of snow and freezing air wondering where he'd end up.

(Dearest Incomplete Struggle, I must appologize for having been so neglectful of this for so long. I hope that things can still be salvaged here, and while now commence to make my next post. It may not be the best I'll put out, but hopefully, it'll get the ball rolling somewhat). PS - If this IS still going, I hope no one minds a quick time skip.

The general awoke slowly in his desk chair, rubbing the tiresome field from his eyes, which watered a bit in reaction. He was a bit drowsy after having napped so well, and was even a little bit disoriented in his newly woken state. He looked around the room, only to find that his desk, and the shelves that lined the walls were still cluttered with various, scattered papers, and tools. Sitting on the desk, just in front of him was a pen, and a small notepad. As he looked at it, he was filled with the brief urge to just write something, of some sort upon it's pages. But a quick glance at the window told him that night had begun to fall upon Radiant Garden.

"Well, I suppose I should get cleaning, finally."

Before he had even lifted a finger to clean off his desk, as he had promised himself, there was a frantic knock on the door, and a voice on the other side, even more distressed.

"General! General! It's Shunketsu, the samurai from The Land of Dragons!"

Immediately, Kreagan knew the voice of Montressori as well as he knew his own voice. As quickly as his gimped knee allowed, he crossed the office and opened the door, stepping into the corridor, coming eye to eye with Armando. "So, what happened to Shunketsu?"

'We think he may have been attacked, by Incompletes!"

"Bring me to him. I want to know what ANYONE, was doing attacking our troops just after a battle!"
